Hi - I have the following as a question in my biochemistry course and I am just lost on where to start. Thanks!
Cyt cb562 will form a tetramer in the presence of Zn+2 or in the absence of Zn+2, it will form a trimer. For both the tetramer and the trimer, suggest the identity of three different amino acids that could be on the interface. Explain how your selections facilitate these interactions.

If we assume normal side chain pKa values for Asp (pKar = 3.90) and for Glu (pKar = 4.07), what proportion of enzyme molecules will have both Asp52 and Glu35 in the correct ionization state at pH 5.0 (the pH optimum for lysozyme)? b.

You have identified some intermediates in threonine synthesis: A, B, C, D and E. You grow a few of your mutants in the presence of these different intermediates to determine the order in which the gene products act. Below are your results. A (+) means growth and a (-) means no growth. Given these data, draw the best possible pathway for the synthesis of threonine. The diagram should use arrows to indicate one intermediate being changed to another intermediate. Indicate which gene produces the product responsible for the conversion by listing the mutant in that gene above the arrow.

Under these conditions, the hydrolysis of 1 mol ATP“(aq) results in the extraction of up to 31kJ of energy that can be used to do non- expansion work, such as the synthesis of proteins from amino acids, muscular contraction, and the activation of neuronal circuits in our brains. (a) Calculate and account for the sign of the entropy of hydrolysis of ATP at pH = 7.0 and 310K.
